I tried to write a short and helpful response and found I couldn't.
The underlying problems are (i) some documents, e.g. simple files,
don't contain encoding tags and (ii) not all software is code-page aware.
Changing your system code page may make some things that are currently
broken work and break others that are currently working.
I'm happy to explain further off-line.
